Progress--Color Quilt

Slowly making progress. I think I need a bigger design wall. Designing this quilt is taking quite a while. Every time I walk into the room, I see squares that aren't quite right and keep moving things around. I have some new holes to fill. I'll have to pull a few fabrics from my stash to fill these. I also need to find some darker pinks to better blend the pinks into the reds. I'm loving it so far. It's going to be well worth the effort.

It's been a day of the sickies around here. Miss C has been sick and droopy all weekend. She even passed up chocolate cake on Sunday and went to lay on the couch instead. Today is looking a bit better, but the kiddos all spent quite a bit of time vegging on the couch watching Dora this morning. I think the ibuprofen I gave her earlier is kicking in. She's off the couch and, she and her sister are currently having a tea party. She keeps calling her sister "young lady" in a wacky voice. She is also calling me "young lady mama" and told me I look lovely today--a wonderful compliment considering I didn't even bother putting on makeup this morning.

The one and only good thing about sick kiddos is having a bit of downtime while they get their couch time. I cut fabric this morning for my Brrr quilt! I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it comes together just how I picture it in my head. I might start sewing it tonight unless I decide sleep is a priority.

I love all your little squares. I have a box of 2 1/2" squares. I need a 'design wall as big as yours, I don't think my hubby would take to kindly to me taking one of our bedroom or living room walls to 'design' on. lol

oh my goodness, I would go mad with all those squares! Actually, my downfall would be transferring them to the sewing machine!! ;)Love the little kiddo compliments, those are the best. Hope everyone is feeling better soon
